🚨NOT GUILTY! D.C. Jury ACQUITS sandwich thrower.

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

Ellis: "Requiring the government to comply with its obligations under the Constitution, in particular the Fourth Amendment, is simply not a harm."

Judge Ellis says the plaintiffs are likely to succeed in their claim that the Trump administration "put substantial pressure on religious practitioners to modify their behavior and violate their beliefs."

Take note, EVERYBODY:

Ellis: "It doesn't matter that someone continues to go protest, or continues to be courageous. That is irrelevant as to whether there was a chilling effect."

After going through several incidents since the start of Operation Midway Blitz — like the ones above — Judge Ellis says, "those are the factual findings that I'm making to support this preliminary injunction."

Ellis on the Oct. 14 incident on the Southeast side: "Agents pushed, shoved, tackled protesters, pointed guns at them, threw tear gas and deployed smoke canisters. Everyone that agents detained were released by the FBI, and none of them are currently charged with assault."

Meta internally projected late last year that it would earn about 10% of its overall annual revenue – or $16 billion – from running advertising for scams and banned goods, internal company documents show. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

good morning to W̶o̶m̶e̶n̶

Chip is quitting Congress, so his GOP fellows can safely ignore him. I think the rest of the GOP now knows their only path to survival, individually or collectively, is to remove Trump before the midterms. Look for more news about his health in the coming months. www.huffpost.com/entry/chip-r...

"Science"

lol

In the UK they have a way of dealing with a situation where you feel your conscience no longer permits you to fulfill your duties and it's called resigning

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

Throwing a bunch of priceless scientific research in the trash to save a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the budget and I guess maybe get elon musk another nice contract down the line for some vaporware. Looting and plundering our country

I talk to the press professionally, I'm really, really, really good at it. So please, please believe me when say you cannot turn this interview request into anything good, it will do only harm. Harm to you, harm to your child, harm to other children.

NEW: Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky has conceded. A stunning defeat for a MAGA media fixture who built a national profile on claims of a "complete gang takeover" of Aurora that led President Trump to visit and falsely proclaim the city "conquered" by an immigrant gang

Those "Buy a bucket of freeze-dried food for the apocalypse" ads have always been weird but man, the latest batch of 4 Patriots commercials. I mean, does this guy look well-fed to you?

Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning. This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

He's insane, folks. Gonna have to turn the Oval Office into a Rubber Room.

only one way to find out tbh

lollll the khan rides

Once upon a time, American soldiers handed out food to Germans because *they* had followed a fascist madman into national ruin. How times change.

Friends— here it is. Updated & expanded thanks to the space afforded to me in the @therumpus.net & the guidance of the brilliant @roxanegay.bsky.social’s edits. The win centers Muslims humanity — but what does that mean in a country that rejects that? therumpus.net/2025/11/05/z...

While the government prosecutes this case “in some purported effort to keep law enforcement safe and free from food fights,” CBP employees “are joking about it.” The gov, she says, is trying to turn a “gag-gift worthy moment into a federal criminal offense. We ask you not to allow them to do that.”

Known forever after as his “Brain MRI” speech.

is that... ...is that one sheet of A4 and two sheets of legal printer paper scotch taped to the outside of the WH?

LO fuckin' L

Thinking about this here in Texas. There are lots of reasons Latino voters might be uniquely persuadable by various Trump campaign promises, and I don't pretend to understand them all. But I do feel confident in understanding how Latino voters will react when they find out they've been lied to.

This guy needs to be sent to an island in the middle of the Atlantic.

dawg they’re live laugh loving the white house. president homegoods

For all the anger at the pitiful Democratic leadership, rank and file Democrats seem to be demonstrating that they are actually in charge of the party and will set its direction. That is a good thing. The GOP belongs to one man; the future of the Democrats is up to every Democrat.

The solution to the male loneliness epidemic is attending a local Democratic Party canvassing event.

Come, then, let’s go fight with them.

Good riddance to bad Democrats.

WOAH. Texas GOP Executive Director Jen Hall and another top party official just resigned. In her letter to party Chair Abraham George, Hall said she "cannot in good conscience continue to work this way" but doesn't elaborate. Hall and George are both longtime Tim Dunn allies. This is...interesting.

Brand new data: Republicans blamed for the shutdown (+12) and for health care premiums going up (+28!!). These are stunning numbers. Republicans aren't immune from the pressure this creates. Time to press our advantage. Stand for what we believe in.

This was basically Mamdani's acceptance speech last night: youtu.be/_Dz-nmm4SEE?...

If you aren't following @boltsmag.org you don't deserve all the nice things we got last night.

This may be the funniest election in 100 years www.npr.org/2025/08/29/n...

This is what I'm thinking/hoping, anyway.

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

Anyone in Austin know what's up with the constant helicopters tonight down here by Ben White and South First?
